Hamilton v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia

Decided September 9, 1987No. 75054PublishedCited by 3 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

Beasley, Judge.

Hamilton appeals his conviction and sentence under OCGA § 16-8-2 for theft by taking from a jewelry store of a 1.53 carat solitaire diamond ring priced at $5,995. His sole enumeration of error is that he was deprived of his right of confrontation under the federal and state constitutions1 when the trial court restricted cross-examination of a state’s witness. He also cites OCGA § 24-9-64 in argument but does not enumerate as error that this statute was violated and thus we do not address it. Hurston v. Ga. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co., 148 Ga. App. 324, 326 (2) (250 SE2d 886)…
